Salvation

The bible says we are all sinners and are destined for the eternal damnation of separation from God (for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23). We were born sinful and we live in a sinful world We cannot be reconciled to God with our sinful nature. We can never be good enough, and we can never earn our way into heaven.  There is only one way we can enter heaven and have eternal life.  That way is by trusting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.  When we accept Jesus, God no longer sees our sin, he sees Christ in us.   Jesus shed his blood on the cross for us and, when we accept his free gift of salvation, we are a new creation in Christ.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

2 Chorinthians 5:17

If you would like to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, seek him with all your heart and pray the prayer below:

Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner and I confess my sins and ask for your forgiveness.  I believe you died for my sins and rose from the dead.  Please come into my heart and take control of my life.  I want you to be the Lord of my life and to follow you all the days of my life.  Thank you for saving me.  I pray this prayer in the precious name of Jesus, Amen

Now that you've asked Jesus to be the Lord of you life, what's next?

• Start by praying and asking God to lead you every day.

• Read and Study your bible. If you don't have a bile, you can read online for free at bible.com. The New King James or Amplied versions are a good place to start. You can also find some good online bible studies on our Resources page.

• Find a church in your area so you can meet other believers and worship together. It's important to read their Statement of Faith before attending. Do they believe in the Holy Trinity of God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit)? Do they believe the only way to have eternal life is through accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?

• Now that you are a Child of God and have eternal life, tell others the good news of Jesus!
